"What Alchemist Shen said is logical. If those two are truly connected to the Asura Clan in some way and we kill them, it'd spell the end of our faction," one of the elders said, breaking the silence.
"Then what should we do with them? The chances of them being 'friends' with the Asura Clan are slim to none, and if we bother the Asura Clan, it might affect our relationship with them," said another elder.
"Why don't we hold off on contacting the Asura Clan and examine them for a little while before we make any decision?"
"That's a good idea. We can just stall this for a little. If they turn out to be troublemakers, we'll kill them."
Though the Inferno Alchemists' stance might seem excessive, it revealed the depth of their fear toward the Asura Clan. In the Primordial Realm, even something as simple as approaching them to confirm an identity was anything but simple.
"I'll let them know," said Alchemist Shen, who guided Yuan and Mu Xuelian to their headquarters.
